Title: Transparent session migration across servers
Inventor: KALUSKAR SANJAY
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2004-08-13
Granted: 2011-09-27
Abstract: Techniques allow a client to be switched from a session on a server to another session on another server in a way that is a transparent to the application for which the initial session was established. Thus, under transparent session migration, a client is switched between sessions without executing application instructions tailored to accomplish the migration. Instead, a client-side interface component, through which the application interacts with the server, handles details of migration, modifying the internal state of the client-side interface component to effect the same. Legacy applications do not have to be modified in order to institute techniques described herein.

Title: High precision feed particularly useful for uv ink jet printing on vinyl
Inventor: CODOS RICHARD N
IPC: B41L39/00
Filed: 2005-01-28
Granted: 2012-07-03
Abstract: An apparatus and method of ink jet printing are disclosed that use a system for feeding a substrate longitudinally relative to a support area and a system for moving a printhead parallel to the direction of substrate feed. Indexing between transverse scan rows of a printhead is carried out initially by the substrate feed system and the actual feed distance is measured using an encoder or other substrate position measurement device. A    controller determines the amount of any error that occurs between actual and desired feed distances. The controller then sends signals to move the printhead to compensate for any error in the feed system feed. Compensating adjustments are then made to the next subsequent substrate indexing step so that the printhead tends to move back toward its home position with its next correction and does not walk away from this home position as a result of cumulative movements.
